This week, both Lewis O’Brien and Sonny Finch underwent surgery.
Both Middlesbrough teammates Lewis O’Brien and Sonny Finch underwent surgery this week in an effort to treat their ailments and start the process of getting back in shape.
O’Brien, a Nottingham Forest loanee, suffered an ankle injury and a lower tibia fracture during Boro’s victory at Watford at the end of the previous month. The 24-year-old will need surgery, it was determined after professionals analyzed scans, and Michael Carrick predicted he would be out of commission for two to three months.
O’Brien probably won’t play again this year, but he at least provided a positive update on Tuesday by posting a photo from his hospital bed after surgery and giving the camera the thumbs up. Surgery completed, he wrote. Thankful for the wonderful medical staff and all the support and affection. “Here’s to recovering and becoming stronger!”
Middlesbrough suffers an injury setback as Michael Carrick admits that Lewis O’Brien will need surgery
O’Brien is on loan from Forest to the Riverside for the remainder of the year. All sides are eager to continue the loan deal despite the extensive injury. O’Brien is anticipated to stay a Boro player with the goal of returning to action as soon as possible, even though the specifics of his recovery are still being worked out with his home club. The club’s official X account reacted to his message with the phrase “Behind you all the way.”
Bright Academy actor Sonny Finch revealed news of his own operation on the same day. The talented young striker made his Championship debut under Carrick toward the conclusion of the last campaign and is highly regarded at Boro. The 18-year-old who routinely trains with the first squad received high praise from the Boro manager.
Finch started the first summertime friendly at Hartlepool United after inking a new long-term contract, but an undisclosed ailment has kept him out of action ever since. Since then, there have been hesitant returns to training, but Finch has needed surgery.
The budding future star of the Boro posted a photo of his right ankle in a cast on his Instagram account and commented, “Successful procedure. Be back there in a flash.
